Mixed Media Hearts *

I was hanging about You Tube as I do quite alot and found this tutorial from Fi over at You Tube on how to create the pitted effect using utee and mica sprays. Brilliant - learn something new everyday lol. I also got the idea for my wings from another of Fi's tutorials, mine are slightly different as only used 3 wires.

Ingredients

2 hearts (cut ut the large one for small one to attach)

brown paint

utee

mica sprays

inka gold for back and sides

wings - made from wire and mod podge then coloured using alcohol inks and inka gold over the topThen I burnt to some holes in the wings to look tattered

Voila - all finished - so many different colours at every angle as you will see

Why not head on over and visit Fi's channel to gain even more inspiration.
